You need to use some kind of capture program that will record your screen (or a part of it) as you rewatch your saved film. Then save that video and upload it.

This topic might have some useful info http://tain.totalcodex.net/forum/viewto ... apz#p56470

You ideally want a tool that directly captures your screen in digital form (before it goes to the display) rather than "filming your monitor". If you're on windows, look at FRAPS or similar tools. There are a few similar things on Mac as well I believe.

Microsoft expression which is free did the trick.

I used that program to screen capture and export to the appropriate format that youtube would accept. It took a couple hours to firgure it out. I used youtube videos to guide me through the process.

Here is the game I was able to upload.
